Professor Talmage's lecture on the above
subject in the Fourteenth Ward Assembly
Rooms was vel attended, and even to those
who had heard of the gentleman's abilities,

It is impossible, in the brief space a, our
disposal, to do anything like justice to

is more for the purpose OF calling at

THE MEEARs CASE.
The Wool Begins to Fly Between
The Lawyers.

The big Meears-M Morgan mining contest at
present going on before Judge Foreman,
the title of which is John A. Groesbeck
Trustee VS. George A. Meears Though the
fact is that Mr.. Groesbeck has but little
interest in the fight himself) promises to
cause the wool TO fly before a settlements
reached. The aspect of the case now being
considered is only eide one out of in
Vulnerable others, and the skirmish yester-
6aY was betweenthe lawyers on the ques-
ton whether Defendant Meesrs should now
have the right to amend his cross com
plant Dickson & Yerian, for Groesbeck,
objected on the ground of undue delay and
negligence. Mr. Royle r Meears retorted
in lively style to the effect that the practice
OF this court had always been extremelv
liberal in allow ng amendments and cited
8 case in this very controversy, where in
February la sckson & Varian themselves
made a reQu9s 20 be allowed TO amend
their complaint and where counsel for
Meears objected. Judge zane said ne did
not care 10 hear il argued, he would al OW

versed, and Mee2rs demanded the benefit
of this precedent II he was not to ye it,

know at whit butcher shop Gr esbeck OBJ

formed what peculiar faculty Groesbeck
possessed that he was able to have the law
overturned for nis benefit. Mr. dickson
holly claimed this was an insinuaEion
against Judge Zane, AID took some time to
defend haG official, though Mr. Koyle
several times said he saw no occasion for it,
and disclaimed int-nd ng to cast any in

AFTER PULITZER.
A BOOdler Defender Goes For the
World" Nan.

4 New York special to the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette says of the speech
made by Lawyer shafer in defense of
Boodler Cleary:
The climax of his speech was reached
when he assailed the World. He said
THAT dirty, filthy sheet yesterday
reviled and lnsulted me by the publica-
ton of lot of vile caricatures, and for
what? Only because I had been doing
my duty before God to my client. A
friend said to me this morning: Shafer,
why don't you shoot that Hungarian
Jewb Why don't you horsewhip him p
Gentlemen, wait The day will come when
l will meet that Jew, face to face, and
when do meet him let him beware"
There are three Hebrews on the Jury.
Judge Barrett interfered when this
burst of passion escaped Mr.. Shafer
and said that as none OF the jury had
seen these papers, he should not refer
to them. You have pursued this much
too far, sir, anyhow" he remarked. 1T
is high time you were getting down to
facts Mr.. Shafer accepted the rebuke
meekly, but he couldn't recover his
self-possession.-. The rest Of his speech
was nearly as violent.
His threats of fire and slaughter
AGAINST Joseph Pulitzer excited great
astonishment in the courtroom. He
asked lawyer after the speech if he
ought - warn Mr.. Pulitzer to arm him.
self? 81 don't want to shoot him down
like dogf' he said. 81 want to give
the fellow chance for his life." The
other lawyer, with an appreciative
sense of humor, said that he scarcely
thought Mr.. Shafer needed torgive Mr..
Pulitzer any farther warning. Your
speech is warning enough" he con-
tinued; besides it is privileged. You
can't be arrested or indicted for it. You
could for written note or challenge"
This argument impressed Mr.. Shafer,
and he said he would not write the note.
But III kill the dog" he said; ''I'll
Kill hun, sure. The first time meet him
III ma o. him fat"
Mr.. Pulitzer refused to say anything
about Mr.. Skaters talk.
Mr.. Shafer, when interviewed this
evening, said 1.-The first time | meet
Mr.. Pulitzer after this trial shall kill
him. i shan t do it without giving him
fair warning. but [ shall kill him sure.
/ don't know whether Mr.. Pulitzer
fights or not, but do, and he will have
to look out for himself if we ever meet
face to face. If I get an acquittal that
will make no difference. l feel as
though he has been conducting sham
full crusade against me personally, and
/ will kill him for it. The attacks he has
made on me in his newspaper have
injured me greatly, and l will get
square with him."

Gen. George A. Sheridan relates this
story. which he picked up in New Orleans.
A delegation Of citizens Of that place
visited President Lincoln to beg him to
remove Gen. Butler from command there.
The president listened while they pre-
sented their thousand and one grievances,
and then said: "Well, gentlemen, much rs
you dislike Gen. Butler, at least he has
done one good thing for you, for BY his
wise sanitary regulations he has kept the
yellow fever out" One Of the delegates,
a creole. skipped before the president and
replied eXcitedly: Pardon, MiStah Presi-
dent, pardon; it was not Butler vat keep

The president laughed heartily, but all tho
